He has to have those 40pt, 50pt, 60pt games that Mitchel has and show to be the type of scorer who can be that dominant, in the end he will always be limited, because Donovan can score at the rim with his elite athletism and speed.
To me the gap between these guys isn't even that large. Tyler is an incredible shooter, but hasn't figured out how to be efficient, yet.
Tyler last season was already 20.1ppg, only taking 16.6 fgs.
Mitchell had an amazing year with the Cavs where he was 28.3 ppg and took 20.6 fgs.
Just doing some napkin math here and scaling Tyler up to 20.6 fgs, he'd be at 24.9 ppg.
Tyler is 3 years younger and you can reasonable assume he will improve.
